The posting, as Anduril wrote it

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

ABOUT THE TEAM

As a Software Manufacturing Test Engineer, you will build, scale, and maintain the software that drives our manufacturing test systems. In this role, your primary focus will be developing production software that directly tests complex hardware systems, integrates with laboratory instrumentation and DAQs, and manages the data these stations produce. You will bridge low-level hardware control with high-level test automation by writing robust, reliable production code in Python and C# targeting Linux/Unix (and ideally NixOS) runtime environments.
To ensure our hardware meets mission-critical quality and production throughput demands, every Software Manufacturing Test Engineer is expected to derive software test requirements from hardware schematics and system specifications, author automated test sequences, and deploy complete software suites to factory test racks. You will work closely with development and firmware engineers to refine test coverage as product designs evolve, resolve complex hardware-software integration failures on the floor, and ensure deterministic software deployments across our manufacturing line.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Maintain ownership of software manufacturing test activities in production, ensuring test station uptime, operator usability, and smooth factory throughput
• Develop and maintain PLC-integrated station control software — commanding industrial controllers over Modbus TCP for rig actuation, interlocks, and sensor acquisition — and maintain the tag/address index as PLC programs evolve, including tooling that imports controller tag exports and validates them against the station's expected schema
• Build hardware-free simulation environments (containerized station images, virtual CAN replay, device simulators) so test software is developed and regression-tested without occupying hardware
• Design, build, and maintain production software manufacturing test suites primarily in Python (for hardware control, test sequencing, and instrument automation) and C# (for test executives, operator interfaces, and background services)
• Integrate software manufacturing test applications directly with sensors, DAQs, programmable power supplies, electronic loads, and vehicle compute hardware
